Mirror's Edge is a first-person action platform game developed by DICE and published by Electronic Arts for Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 in 2008 and Microsoft Windows in 2009. The game utilizes Unreal Engine 3.The game is set in a big, shiny city in a conformist police-state. You are cast as Faith Connors, an illegal courier or "Runner", whose job it is to hand-deliver messages and data across rooftops and skyways to avoid ubiquitous government monitoring of movement and communications. The story follows Faith in her struggle to free her sister, a police officer who has been framed for the murder of the opposition candidate for Mayor of the city. While running her clients' illegal messages, she gets caught up in a series of events which lead to her being ruthlessly pursued by the totalitarian government herself. Mercury, Faith's trainer and mentor, acts as her guide, helping her outwit, outrun, and overcome the sinister agents out to eliminate her.While the game is a First-Person Shooter, guns are completely optionalnote There's even an achievement for not firing one in the entire game called "Test of Faith". Instead, Faith uses parkour to traverse rooftops and evade enemies. The rooftops turned into large puzzle pieces as players found their way to point B. The game also had an interesting art direction: the city was almost entirely sterile white save for some sparse colors here and there, and items and places that would turn red to point players in the right direction.An iPhone/iPad prequel was released in 2010. The gameplay was changed to a 2D Canabalt-style platformer, and the plot involves Mayor Callaghan's attempt to turn the public against the police so shenote She was male in the original game can replace them with her private military, something that was only hinted at in the original game.Succeeded by the Continuity Reboot Mirror's Edge Catalyst in 2016. | |

Instant-Win Condition: Booting Jacknife out of his helicopter and rescuing Kate apparently causes all the PK officers on the roof that would've filled the two full of lead right afterwards to vanish into the ether, and the game apparently doesn't care about the hordes of blues swarming the building either as the game ends right there instead of depicting Faith and Kate's escape. | |

Title Drop: In the intro movie: "We call ourselves Runners. We exist on the edge between the gloss and the reality; the Mirror's Edge." In this case, it seems to be not so much shoehorning the phrase in, but explaining it, which is kind of a nice change from the norm. | |

| Mirror's Edge (Video Game) / int_19028da | comment |
Usually these vents will kill you instantly if you try to just pass through the jet of steam, but there's one in the Pirandello-Kruger level which activates on a timer, yet will only cause mild damage, if it hurts you at all, allowing you to skip waiting for it to turn off. | |

Balls of Steel | |
| Mirror's Edge (Video Game) / int_1c585ba5 | comment |
Balls of Steel: A slide kick in the groin is a very effective method of dispatching armed enemies (disabling them for just enough time for a disarm)... except the heavy troopers who explicitly wear groin protection with their armor and therefore only receive normal damage from such kicks. Also, the groin kicks don't work on the Parkour Killer, an early indication that it's a girl. | |

Regenerating Health | |
| Mirror's Edge (Video Game) / int_1f92e4c6 | comment |
Regenerating Health: Any harm sustained by Faith will fully go away in several seconds. As there is no health meter, the game communicates Faith's status through telltale visual feedback: minor injuries will merely desaturate and add a slight vignette to the image, but when the edges of the screen begin flashing red, it's time to seek cover. | |

Notice This: Faith's "Runner Vision" highlights certain objects along her route in bright red, showing the player which way to go, though it doesn't always show the best route. You can turn it off from the options menu. It is forced off on Hard difficulty, which would be unbearable if it didn't require you to have cleared the game to play on Hard. | |

Throw-Away Guns | |

Throw-Away Guns: Faith throws away her gun whenever she runs out of ammo, and you cannot reload a gun at all. It's justified, since she can't carry extra bullets and the guns slow her down anyway. | |

Post-Cyberpunk | |
| Mirror's Edge (Video Game) / int_2344d3d6 | comment |
Post-Cyberpunk: Both the games visuals and plot place it firmly into the post-cyberpunk genre; very clean, very shiny, and also an oppressive police state where the heroes are the ones who can avoid them. At the same time, futuristic weapons or electronics are completely absent. The few times people do use computers, it's to read documents during cutscenes, and the most complex electronic devices the player uses are elevator buttons. Averted in the reboot. Pure Cyberpunk with eye implants, vertibirds, drones, and electronic walls that can scan your ID with a touch. | |

A Winner Is You: After clearing the final level and saving Kate (again), they just hug without a word, the camera pans out to show most of the city, and the credits roll. The only epilogue we get is during the credits, in the form of a brief news soundclip suggesting that Faith and Kate have eluded the police once again, which is hardly a surprise given the many daring escapes Faith pulled off in the story. | |

Gratuitous Foreign Language: Gratuitous Simplified Chinese and Gratuitous Japanese gibberish on shipping crates. Averted on a particular door that does have the correct Japanese "ç«‹å…¥ç¦�æ¢", "Entry Forbidden". Everything else is gibberish, though. While in-game Chinese is correct (here the Traditional variant is used), translation at times seems to be somewhat lazy, with an omnipresent "é�žè«‹èŽ«å…¥"(basically "no admittance without invitation/authorization") standing in for more detailed notifications, such as "Maintenance area". You will occasionally run into some Korean and Cyrillic characters. | |

Flipping the Bird: The "Sweet Goodbye" achievement. This is achieved by jumping forward, doing a 180 degree turn while in the air and then pressing the attack button in quick succession. This will make Faith flash a V-sign while falling backwards (this is the equivalent of flipping the bird in Britain, Ireland, and New Zealand). | |

The Precarious Ledge: Faith slows down long enough to creep across ledges on the rooftops, such as during the training sequence whilst following Celeste. These short sections come with Plummet Perspective too. | |

Boring, but Practical | |
| Mirror's Edge (Video Game) / int_39b8d3d6 | comment |
Boring, but Practical: Despite the game's emphasis on melee combat and running, you might find that it's easier and safer to handle attacking cops or PK elites by knocking out one, taking his gun, and using that gun to shoot all the others. | |

Crapsaccharine World: The city seems like a pretty nice place to live for an oppressive police state; it's a clean, sunny place where the people are healthy and the economy seems to be in good shape, which begs the question just what the deal is. Then again, the Cowboy Cop entry may be a good indicator there is indeed something very, very wrong with that place... | |

Cowboy Cop | |
| Mirror's Edge (Video Game) / int_3dd3951e | comment |
Cowboy Cop: To the city police, it seems like the standard procedure to arrest a Runner can be boiled down to "fill the fucker with lead until they stop running. Then Double Tap". Hell, it's not even unusual to have them shoot at you with the heavy artillery before they actually order you to surrender ! Keep in mind that, in a Pacifist Run, Faith actually does nothing but run away from them and won't even carry a weapon, meaning that there is absolutely no reason for them to use deadly force against her. Then again, the city IS a totalitarian state, so abusive police forces are part of the bunch (even if breaking out the attack helicopters and armored SWAT teams for one unarmed woman running around the rooftops still sounds a bit much). However, turns out you're never facing actual cops, but Pirandello-Kruger mercenaries, trying to defend a conspiracy to replace the police with their own private force. | |

Conveniently Empty Building | |
| Mirror's Edge (Video Game) / int_3fb02630 | comment |
Conveniently Empty Building: The game takes place in the height of summer, so it's not immediately apparent that many of the levels take place during very early morning or late evening when most people would still be sleeping or have finished work several hours ago. The mall is closed for renovation before its "grand re-opening" (though there are commercials in the game claiming it's open 24/7) and many levels take place in construction sites or maintenance areas. However, it's all deliberate, as the complete desolation in the middle of a major city is a large part of the game's dystopian theme. The subway station, like the mall, was closed for renovation. | |

Bittersweet Ending: Faith successfully rescues her sister and kills the man responsible for Pope's murder, but the Big Bad is nowhere to be seen, and they are both fugitives wanted for multiple murders. Her best friend has betrayed her, killing her beloved mentor and training the brutal police forces to kill all Runners. However, she was able to shut down the City's Sinister Surveillance, at least temporarily, and that's what Runners do in a sense - enable the Resistance to plan in privacy. This battle has been won, and the war continues.. | |

Fragile Speedster: Faith simply can't take on more than one or two Blues head on before getting shot to hell. This is not a problem since she can frequently zoom right past them. If you compare speed runs on YouTube, you'll find runs where some enemies fail to appear entirely - normally they are set to intercept Faith, but the player is so far ahead that they can only break down the door and yell "Freeze!" at an empty room.

Gameplay and Story Segregation: The heavy presence of cameras is focused on as one of the city's invasions of privacy, but there are no consequences for running right past one and at no point are they treated like something that needs to be avoided.

Goomba Stomp: Just landing on people isn't necessarily deadly, but it can be turned into one of the faster and safer one-hit takedowns in the game... if you can pull it off. Pulling it off also nets the achievement "It's-A Me!". | |

| Mirror's Edge (Video Game) / int_6838a3ec | comment |
Elite Mook: The Pursuit Cops can do a lot of the same parkour moves Faith can, so outrunning them can be challenging. They also deploy smoke grenades to conceal incoming attacks and won't hesitate to use their tasers on Faith if they're unable to reach her directly. In addition, they're extremely proficient in hand-to-hand combat note if you haven't spent a lot of time fighting, and don't know how the PCs telegraph their attacks, you're in for a walloping, making it nigh-suicidal to attack them head-on. In case one is brave enough to do so, the Wall Run Kick becomes crucial to defeating them, allowing Faith to take them out with one of her disarming grabs, and attacks from above are still an instant knockout. Merc will advise you to flee whenever you encounter one. | |

Meaningful Name: Mercury, whose code-name clearly refers to the Ancient Roman messenger of the gods. Also he's frequently referred to as "Merc" which can also be taken as shorthand for "Mercenary", which the Runners are, to a degree. Faith too; she "keeps the faith" regarding her sister's innocence and her own profession. The ending has her literally and figuratively making a leap of Faith. | |

Private Military Contractors: If you look closely, you'll notice the more heavily-armed "Blues" in the game wear black PK uniforms instead of the blue CPF uniforms worn by the city police. Faith herself somehow misses this little detail until a CPF character points it out to her in the very last level. Turns out they're all security forces of Pirandello/Kruger, a PMC that turns out to be one of your main enemies. | |

Steam Vent Obstacle | |
| Mirror's Edge (Video Game) / int_80e5008f | comment |
Steam Vent Obstacle: Steam vents are particularly irritating obstacles because they require you to stop and rotate the nearby valve for a couple of seconds. In a game where even braking down is generally not desirable. Almost all of them are seemingly only there to give the game some extra seconds to load the next section of the level. Usually these vents will kill you instantly if you try to just pass through the jet of steam, but there's one in the Pirandello-Kruger level which activates on a timer, yet will only cause mild damage, if it hurts you at all, allowing you to skip waiting for it to turn off. In the iOS version, these kill you faster than getting shot, and appear fairly often in levels that take place indoors. | |

Where the Hell Is Springfield? | |
| Mirror's Edge (Video Game) / int_8504b817 | comment |
Where the Hell Is Springfield?: The City's location is ambiguous. Clocks throughout the game depict the letters "E.T.", as in "eastern time", which would make you think it's on the East Coast of North America. Not so fast though, because the City's coastline matches Shenzhen Bay near Hong Kong, much of the City's architecture bears a decidedly Asian vibe to it and traffic is on the left side of the road. Then there's two official languages, English and Chinese. All of this adds up to confusing the hell out of anyone trying to figure out where the City is beyond "somewhere in East Asia", and that's probably intentional. At the very least it is set somewhere on (an) Earth since there is mention of the USA and UN...along with Serdaristan and Tasbikistan | |

Tightrope Walking: Faith can run on thin pipes and planks if need be. This can involve manual balance (not just keeping her upright by wiggling the stick or Sixaxis) such as when Faith had to run on a crane; at these times her survival is dependent on the skill of the player at keeping her feet centered, not just her center of gravity. In-game comments allude to the danger of this trope. | |

| Mirror's Edge (Video Game) / int_8af25294 | comment |
Disarm-counters instantly take down an enemy and give you a free weapon, but you need to be in melee rangenote which means rushing at someone who is shooting at you and have very precise timingnote there's only a split-second long window for assault rifle and combat shotgun-wielding mooks, almost necessitating the use of Faith's Reaction Time ability. Enemy melee attacks do a lot of damage, too, so if you fail to grab once, you might not get a second chance. | |

Insurmountable Waist-Height Fence | |
| Mirror's Edge (Video Game) / int_8d6c8737 | comment |
Insurmountable Waist-Height Fence: Averted, since the game is mostly played atop skyscrapers, in that while Faith can jump over fences and most other obstacles, falling off the edge means instant death. That last part is Truth in Television, by the way. There are spots where an obviously non-fatal drop will still cause death. Example. | |

Pacifist Run | |
| Mirror's Edge (Video Game) / int_97ebe48b | comment |
Pacifist Run: The only person Faith must kill is her Evil Counterpart, which she does automatically by jumping from the roof of the hundred-and-ten-story Shard onto a helicopter, booting him right out the other side in the process. Of course he fires his SMG all the way down and kills the rotors, meaning Faith and Kate are stuck on a falling helicopter... In fact, you earn a special achievement, "Test of Faith", if you complete the game without shooting anyone with a firearm (except the convoy). Funnily enough, the achievement is strictly for not shooting anyone; you can throw Blues into the path of an oncoming train or off skyscrapers and still be considered a pacifist. However, if you don't shoot anyone, then you will have to deal with at least a couple of enemies in other ways, if only because even Faith isn't fast enough to dodge a heavy machine gunner camped right by the door she needs to use. | |

Good luck getting an enemy into position to do that. It's possible, with a lot of practice to become a Parkour Kungfu Master and kick the shit out of cops while looking incredibly badass. | |

Hyperspace Arsenal | |
| Mirror's Edge (Video Game) / int_9c7e3137 | comment |
Hyperspace Arsenal: Very much averted. Carrying weapons reduces Faith's speed and agility, so while she can disarm enemy mooks and use their guns against them, she must usually discard them immediately; how can you shimmy up a pipe while carrying a 50. caliber sniper rifle? The exception is the pistol and the machine pistol, which are both small enough that Faith can carry them without slowing down a bit. Unfortunately, they also have the smallest ammo clips out of any weapon in the game (except the shotgun, but that's another story entirely). | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Mirror's Edge (Video Game) / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: Notice the computer screens when Faith finds the information about Project Icarus. All the runners have their information filled in or marked as "unknown" - except for Celeste, whose info is marked as being "Classified". Also, when Merc says "Who knows who [Jacknife]'s working for now", the elevator Faith's in is showing advertisements for Callaghan, Pirandello Kruger, and both Callaghan and Pirandello Kruger. This one is really subtle, but during New Eden, if you try to use the elevators again once you're in the mall, you get a special error message saying the elevator controls have been siezed by Pirandello-Kruger; the same error screen that appeared on the elevators in Robert Pope's building before it was raided by PK officers. Some players might brush this off, but to attentive players it's an early warning that you're walking into a trap. | |

Samus Is a Girl: The boss of Chapter 7 is Celeste, whose alter ego was presumed male. Hilariously, your first clue is when she doesn't really react to your crotch-kicks. Another giveaway - when you hit her she grunts girlishly, and how many girls have you met so far in the game? Faith, Celeste, and Kate. Two of those are fairly unlikely. A third giveaway — and a pretty clever one at that — when you're escaping the mall and the Parkour Killer waits for Faith to catch up, she does Celeste's idle animation: that restless hop you first see in the tutorial. | |

Imperial Stormtrooper Marksmanship Academy | |
| Mirror's Edge (Video Game) / int_a796d2a6 | comment |
Imperial Stormtrooper Marksmanship Academy: The entire game is based around the premise that a police state has police who can't reliably hit moving objects, even with fully automatic weapons. Believe it or not, this is Truth in Television. Most people (including a number of experienced cops) sincerely believe that More Dakka will instantly reduce targets to hamburger. Inexperienced and/or overconfident law enforcement officers regularly empty their badge-granted leadspitters at unarmored targets at less than five meters, and don't put a scratch on them because they forget to aim. Burning off too much ammo at once blows accuracy to hell. Also, Police forces that rely too heavily on intimidation never really get enough weapons practice. Add all that up, then order the poor, doomed mooks to hunt down a human hamster. Hilarity Ensues. Averted when playing on Hard difficulty. Can you say Oh, Crap!, Runner? The first shot by any mook almost always misses, but lets them sight in on you. Every shot after that can be expected to hit unless you take cover - real cover. This makes various sequences very difficult due to not being able to disarm or defeat mooks. Played straight in a cutscene, where a whole group of police shoot at Faith and Celeste (neither of whom has any sort of cover) for several seconds without hitting. Enforced in the reboot. As long as Faith is not still, bullets will miss. And really, is it so unrealistic that even cops and mercenaries can rarely hit a trained runner moving both horizontally and vertically with a changing silhouette at a dead sprint? | |

Impairment Shot: When Faith takes a bullet, her eyes water and strain from the pain, damaging her peripheral vision. This means the screen's edges flash red and blur. | |

Mission Control | |
| Mirror's Edge (Video Game) / int_bebf0356 | comment |
Mission Control: Mercury. "I find the work, chop it up, farm it out. The runners do it. It's a tidy arrangement. Everyone gets paid, and nobody sees a thing." That is, until he meets his untimely demise in the penultimate chapter. Miller then takes the role of directing Faith for most of the Shard chapter until he is presumbably discovered and shot dead off-screen. | |

Video Game Cruelty Potential: In the tutorial, you can shoot your best friend. Despite the tutorial saying, "Don't shoot your best friend." You have a few opportunities to throw enemies off of high places, if you're feeling sadistic. The most noticable option for it is when a shotgun-wielding PK comes out from a construction building as you parkour through it, your most likely reaction is to jumpkick him head-on. You try keeping your cool instead of disarming an enemy and using his weapon to utterly slaughter his comrades after you are treated one time too many to the sight of Faith falling dead on her side with the screen blacking out to the sound of "Arrest the suspect !" | |

Laser Sight | |
| Mirror's Edge (Video Game) / int_f9bc2937 | comment |
Laser Sight: The snipers have these, apparently to give away their position. Then again, those "laser sights" may simply be visible due to the Runner's Vision ! It's really useful when you have a Sniper Rifle too; not only do you sensibly have the laser switched off, but you can use their beams to trace up to them with the scope. It even produces a handy little dot if they're behind cover! | |

Ascetic Aesthetic: The minimalist yet believable art direction with creative and ubiquitous use of bold, saturated colors for the City's appearance is certainly among the game's strongest selling points. | |

Brick Joke: A rather sad one. An office worker from PK decides that their project to eliminate runners, the horrible working conditions, among other controversial things such as "interrogating co-workers", isn't worth it and sends a mail that he's quitting. This is detailed in his personal diary and the rant can be read on his computer. The file containing said rant is found open on his computer when you get to the PK facility. When you go through the depths of the facility, you find a corridor filled with windows leading to interrogation rooms. An office worker is in one of them and he is beaten and bloody. | |

Falling more than a certain distance will kill Faith instantly, except for predetermined cutscenes (also an example of Cutscene Power to the Max). | |
